Welcome aboard young man.
You started with the best, (Grapeshot) and there are many more I have been fortunate to meet and learn from.
Maybe the grumpiest and the most difficult to understand.
The strength of this forum comes from not one individual, but the diversity and special talents of many. We recently lost two stalwart friends whose contributions will be missed. It is through acquiring new members/registrants that we replenish, expand and grow.
I saw a flicker of flame in this young man - a desire for knowledge and participation in a positive way. His choice, but I will not be surprised to see him grow into a beacon of light and knowledge; hence, teaching others about OC and RKBA in Virginia.
I will add an unabashed plug for his place of employment:
One Stop Auto Repair, 8311 Midlothian Turnpike, 804-320-7867. They are a family owned business, extremely good at what they do, price fairly, and stand behind their work + are most accepting/supporting of properly holstered handguns as we go about our everyday routines. Youngblood12 and his brother (twins) are the latest in the lineage.
